No More the Fool Lyrics
by Elkie Brooks
My first post here, hope you like it.
Sounds good in B but this I wrote in D major.
A beautiful song. Comments welcome!
1st verse:
Just why I stayed around
When all I found was heartache
I believed your every word
Didn't know the hurt and pain that you'd make
But why did it take so long
Alas now I've seen the light
I've found the heart to say
Chorus:
No more the fool who waits around
Waiting for you to bring me down
Those days are gone now
No more the nights lying awake
Crying and waiting for the day to break
No more the sound as my dreams
Fall and hit the ground
While I wait around
No more the fool
2nd verse:
You thought I'd break, then you were wrong
That I won't see what's going on
But I knew
Here I am, I'm alive
And you'll see I'll survive without you
And I won't be the one who comes running
It ain't like it used to be
It's your turn to run to me
Chorus:
No more the fool who waits around
Waiting for you to bring me down
Those days are gone now
No more the nights lying awake
Crying and waiting for the day to break
No more the sound as my dreams
Fall and hit the ground
While I wait around
No more the fool
Bridge1:
**Talking**
All the nights I've waited for you to call
I've waited for a sign that you would stay
But it's so clear
You didn't care at all
No more the fool
**Backing Vocals**
(No more the fool, who waits around)
(No more the fool, no more the clown)
(No more the fool)
No more the sight No more the sound
And hits the ground No more the fool
Chorus:
No more the fool who waits around
Waiting for you to bring me down
Those days are gone now
No more the nights lying awake
Crying and waiting for the day to break
No more the sound as my dreams
Fall and hit the ground
While I wait around
No more the fool
Bridge2:
**Backing Vocals**
(No more the fool, who waits around)
(No more the fool, no more the clown)
No more the fool
No more the sight
No more sound
(And hits the ground)
No more the fool
